It's the LD, but pre-DI.

I was actually quite impressed in the lens. It feels good in your hands (a reflection of build quality), and has a decent AF. In macro I did notice quite a bit of searching, so I'm having to work on my manual focusing skills (still a noob). For $90 shipped, I'm not complaining.

Zoo Pictures:


















Those guys were way in the back of the exhibit. Tough shot, with the distance and low light due to tree cover.

Picked up the lens of eBay last week. Here are some quick photos I've taken with it.

(Went to the zoo today, so will have more pics later)













C&C welcome as I'm still learning how to shoot well with a long lens. Hope you guys enjoy!

I wonder if those guys are out of Tybee Island or Charleston. They used to buzz us all the time out on Hunting Island when I lived in Beaufort. You'd be sitting on the beach, and they'd come from behind you just over the trees.

IIRC isn't Quantaray a rebadged Tamron? And if so, would this be the lens?

I found this Sigma AF 75-200mm on eBay, would this be a good start for just playing around?

Thanks!

It's called light painting, and here is a link to how it's done:

Both of these were taken with my old Canon P&S and not my Pentax, but I thought I would share. The first one is all camera magic, the second one is Photoshopped.

Hey Tom, welcome, and thanks for the introduction in my welcome thread. I live in La Vergne, but will soon be moving closer to my job in Brentwood. I own an *istDL, and I am also new to the hobby. Look forward to seeing some of your stuff from around town.

Well my girlfriend is the person in the picture, and she actually does photography for a living, so I guess it helps her to be a good subject. :)



Noticed the dust now that you guys have pointed it out. Thanks for that, cleaned the sensor last night.

The second one is taken from the elevated (about 4 stories off the water) viewing point on the boardwalk. Both photos were taken in my hometown of Beaufort, SC.

Hi everyone, my name is Scott.

(...HI SCOTT...)

I've had my *istDL for about 6 months, and just happened to wander across these forums today. I look forward to getting to know some of you folks, and hearing what advice you have for someone who is looking for a good hobby!

Bare in mind I'm a software developer for a living and not a photographer, so thoughts and opinions are greatly appreciated.

Taken with my Pentax *istDL
